Thank you all for the reviews, and I'm sorry I told you the ending, Megalyn27, I didn't really think of the chances of someone wanting to read the book when I posted the last chapter.

Warnings: None really, nice chapter. But, the next chapter will have action. I promise it on the River Styx!

Enjoy~

The days after their meeting seemed to blur into weeks, and those muddled into months. Wally's back injury seemed to heal faster than normal, even with his superspeed. His uncle was wondering what had happened, but didn't ask anything, thinking that it was just because he was doing what he was told and not running off. Too bad he didn't know that he went to visit Dany and Jason every two days. Roy had gone back to his house, but was still visited every day by Speedy and Dany, and Wally.

Today was officially three months after Dany ran away, and some of the heat was off. Batman never made another meeting with the two, which either meant he had decided to give up; which was highly unlikely; or that he had taken to stalking Dany from the shadows. The League had stopped most of their searches, and the police had stopped altogether.

Kid Flash was able to go back to the team, but things were rocky and unstable. Superboy and Aqualad accepted him quickly, and treated him just like they did before, but things with the others weren't that good. A new teammate had been brought in, Zatanna, and she seemed to have only heard about his breakdown. She tried her best to not be in contact with him, and whenever they talked, she seemed to be super cautious.

His and Artemis's banter turned from playful to full out arguments. Artemis usually initiated it by yelling at him for something he had done in the mission, but it quickly turned into a yelling match about who did it worse and things as stupid as favorite color. He and Robin were still good friends, but Wally could see the difference. They just weren't as close as before. And M'gann seemed to hate him. She still baked, but never thanked him for the compliments he gave to the horrible cookies. And he couldn't even talk to her without her giving him the cold shoulder.

Roy passed by the mountain every so often, saying that he needed to talk to Wally about something, and then they left. Usually for hours. This got the attention of the whole team, and they were ready to ask Flash about it by the fourth time it happened, but most of them didn't want to. Artemis wanted to act like she didn't care, M'gann just didn't, Superboy and Aqualad didn't think it was that important, Zatanna was too scared, and Robin just thought it was normal.

So, Wally and Dany thought things were going to be okay. Jason seemed to have gotten over his problems a few days after they started, and had been making sure no one sold to Roy. But, whenever the two siblings saw him, he seemed to have a new scar, even though it was one every time. They had been cutting down his regular doses, just to get him used to it. School had already started, but none of Dany's friends went, so Dany didn't go either. Roy just worked, so that meant that the only one that went to school was actually Wally.

Now the two red heads were visiting Dany and Beny, along with Jason, Angelina, and Deshawn. Wally and Angelina seemed to have something going on, even if Angelina already had a boyfriend. Roy was sitting on one of the guest chairs, talking with Deshawn about basketball statistics, Wally and Angelina were sitting on top of Speedy, sitting side by side and laughing, while Dany was typing away at her computer, and Jason was sitting next to her, cleaning his gun.

Benny suddenly burst into the room, smiling like a fat kid that had just found an unlimited candy bag, Virginia following him with a huge smile of her own. All of the kids were shocked, because Virginia was usually never surprised. Even when it was her birthday a few weeks ago and they threw her a surprise party, she only gave a small smile and 'thank you's'.

"Kids, drop whatever you're doing!" Benny exclaimed, looking around the room, then noticed the two teens on the horse. "Why is there a horse in my building?" He asked, the smile dropping a little, but then he shook his head and smiled again. "Forget it, more important things are up!" He exclaimed, then waited for the kids reaction.

They all looked nervously at each other, wondering why he was so excited. They had learned from years of experience that whenever an adult was excited, it didn't necessarily mean that you would be too. Wally was the most frequent victim of that rule.

"Uh, what's up, dad?" Dany asked. That was also another thing that had changed in the two and a half months of staying with Benny. She now looked at him as a father figure, not just a kind man that took her in.

He smiled even brighter, something that happened whenever she called him that. The kids had also learned quickly that the man was more like a kid at times than an adult.

"Because of me being such a philanthropist, you know, like donating to the 'The World for the Kids' and 'We're Here for You' foundations? Well, I've also donated a large part of my savings to building the newest stadium in Metropolis, I have been invited to the first ever 'Superhero Games'! And they gave us eight tickets!" He exclaimed, showing him the tickets. There were eight tickets, which was just enough for everybody in the room and an extra.

Wally and Roy looked at each other, then at Dany and Jason with wide eyes. Dany returned the gaze, while Jason just kept level headed. Dany cleared her throat, then asked, "Uh, dad, what, exactly, is that?" She asked.

He was about to answer, but Virginia cut him off with happiness shrouding her face and voice. "Honey, like the Olympics, the heroes from around the world will get together and compete. But, the money that is sold on everything and anything there, will be given to different charities." She explained, putting a hand on Benny's shoulder when he pouted. "But, the best part is we got box seats."

Now Wally and Roy were worried. None of the League had told them about this, and neither did their boy wonder. Guess that cold day in hell had happened, becuase Robin never kept such information from them. But Angelina and Deshawn were excited. It was no secret that they had different cases of hero worship. For some reason, Angelina worshipped two heroes, one known as Vejigante and the other one was Shining Knight. And Deshawn was in love with Ms. Martian; which Wally didn't understand why; and worshipped Superman.

Dany put on a forced smile, then told Benny, "When are the games?" She asked.

He smiled brightly again, forgetting Virginia's interruption, then said, "Next week's Saturday." He said.

Dany was about to ask who was the eighth guest, but Deshawn beat him to it. "Hey, Mr. Siegel, who's the eighth ticketd for?"

Dany glared at him, but quickly turned back to Benny. He had frowned, then mumbled, "I don't really know." Then, he smiled again, "If you kids want to invite someone, you may." He said.

Deshawn smiled brightly at him, then talked to the whole group of his friends. "You guys think I can invite my cousin? I know that she would love to see something like this." He said.

Angelina looked at Wally, then Dany, and shrugged, saying she was okay with it. Dany looked at the rest of the guys, getting shrugs from Jason and Roy, but nods from Deshawn and Wally. "I guess you're cousin is coming with us to those games, Deshee." She said, smiling.

"Yeah!" He exclaimed, jumping from his seat, shoving his hand in his pocket, then taking out a phone. "I'm going to call Raq, she'll be so excited!" He said, then ran out the window, landing on the balcony.

Benny and Virginia continued smiling, then something clicked in Virginia's head. "Carmen Siegel, you have to buy a new dress for this occasion." She said, smiling even more.

Dany's eyes widened in fear, and a plan of running away quicklly formed in her mind. Virginia saw this, and said, "Don't you dare even try to get away form this, Carmen. You are going to use a dress and wig, and maybe even contacts for this event," She said as an afterthought, "But you aere wearing a dress!" She yelled.

Dany sighed and slumped in her chair, getting laughs from everybody in the room. Angelina jumped off of Speedy, walked over to her, and put a hand on her shoulder, "Don't worry, Cam. I promise to go with you guys and make sure to get the most girly dress for you." She said, erupting into another fit of laughter at the scared face that Dany gave her.

Benny frowned at the information, knowing that she most probably meant the most humble yet revealing piece, and stepped up to stop the laughter. "Now come on, kids, no need for that. Virginia, why don't you just let her use one of the dresses she already has?" He asked, turning to his girlfriend. He really wanted to propose, but didn't want to screw it up.

She humphed, crossed her arms, and stuck her nose in the air. "Bejamin Siegel, there is no way that I will let your daughter walk into such a big event wearing such ratty clothing." She said, glaring at him.

He sighed, but understood what she meant. Since Dany started going on her rounds with Jason, things got a little more violent, and she always ended with her dresses with some kind of cut or something. But, at least she had been almost two weeks without having to go, and now his gang was completely safe for any of the elder's kids, which was something no one ever exptected.

"Okay, but no more than five grand for the dress." He said, putting his foot down on the money issue. "I still haven't gotten my paycheck, and we're still with building of the Flamingo, which means we're kind of tight on money." He told her.

Virginia thought about the offer, then smiled and nodded. "Sure thing, Benjy." She said, then kissed him.

Wally, Dany, and Angelina 'Ewwed' at the kiss, making both the adults laugh. Benny wrapped an arm around her waist, then led her out. "Bye guys." He said with a smile, then closed the door behind him.

Wally sped over to Dany, and said, "I'm finally going to see you in a dress that doesn't make you look like a stripper?"

She smacked him on the head, then said, "If I know Angelina, she'll make sure you don't."

He smiled, then frowned. "Benny just invited us to something that has to do with the League. What are me and Roy going to tell him when we're stuck not going?" He asked.

She frowned too, then shrugged, and said, "Maybe you guys should just lie to the League and come with us. I know that things haven't been good with them, so you might as well go with friends."

Angelina suddenly jumped on Wally's back, hugging him around the neck, "Plus, Mr. Kid Flash, I'd love for you to be my date for that event." She whispered into his ear.

He shivered at the feel, making Dany laugh at him. "Boy's are too easy to control." She said, making Angelina nod from his back.

Deshawn stepped into the room, a huge smile on his face, then said, "Well, I guess you'll be meeting my cousin in a week." He said.

The kids all smiled at him, while Jason and Roy just looked on, and Dany asked, "What's her name?"

"Raquel Ervin. And I'm sure you guys will get along perfectly." He said, making Dany smile.

The night continued like that, the kids all joking together while Roy and Jason spoke in the shadows, not wanting their conversation to be heard, and then the kids all stayed the night. Wally had called his parents and asked, getting a threat from Mary and then a whatever. He sighed, nothing would ever be the same with them after their latest blowup. He sometimes wondered if he should runaway and stay with the Siegel's, but then he thought about his Uncle Barry and Vigilante, and the thougts were pushed back.

He only really wished that Mary would be less like she is. Yeah, he didn't even acknowledge her as his mother anymore. But, he decided to push those thougts back as Deshawn tried to mount Speedy, only to fall on his butt or neck, and Angelina laughed when she got a threatning text from her most recent ex. He decided to forget his biological family, and just be happy with theses guys. His newest and somewhat disfunctional family, even though they still worked.

Five reviews and I will update tomorrow. And, as I think you've seen, I will update when I get the numbers of reviews I ask for, or the next week. It's all up to you when I update.
